My heart was just broken to hear of Morgan's passing. I worked with him and he was one of the kindest souls that I've ever met. So genuine and caring. He had a funny sense of humor as well! I still remember the last time I talked with him and I smile each time I remember our conversation. Praying for comfort and peace in this tender loss.

Bobby, I was on this website for one of the players that my husband coached at St. Paul's. He died and I wanted to leave a note. As I searched I saw a name that made me stop!! Robert Morgan Bray. I soon realized it was your son and had to send my deepest prayers to you and your family. I think he looks like you!! Been a long time but I still have fond memories.
Wishing you and your family the best as you deal with such a devastating loss. Joanie (Beale) Best always Bobby

I'm so sorry to hear of Morgan's passing , the news has hit me pretty hard.
In highschool, Morgan and I were sort of rivals in the art field, he was so talented , I was always felt he was the most talented in our class. I will always remember spending our Junior Year spring break drawing murals for the Prom that year.
He was always very kind , always true to himself and I always admired that.
I truly wish I had stayed in contact after graduation.

I didn’t know you long, Morgan - But it didn’t take long to know that you had such a kind soul... One of the ones that the world could use more of.
